	Interesting.  I have a broken gnorpm 0.95.1-6.6x, which I tried to fix by 
installing gnorpm 0.96, but got a message that it needed libbz2.so.1. 
Attempting to install the bzip2 1.0.1 package, I was told that 
libbz2.so.0 was needed by rpm 4.02 et al..
	I'm no expert, and it may be that my RH6.2 is not easily upgradeable to 
new versions of apps that are built for RH7.x.  Fwiw, I found, at 
length, a message on upgrading to rpm 4.x that may be of use to others, 
at http://groups.yahoo.com/group/rpm-list/message/11384
